How to fix it

  1. 1

    Open the reported file and check whether the export produced a header and records.

  2. 2

    Regenerate the missing content from the source. Remove an optional empty file only if no feature or reference requires it.

  3. 3
    Check the result

    After a repair, rebuild the archive and validate it again. Confirm that the affected records are correct and that no new related notices appeared. A reviewed warning or informational notice may remain when it describes intentional, supported data.
